The mission

What this organization describes

Facilitate and equip mission work around the world
FRIENDS in Action International works to assist missionary groups and individuals around the world with similar purposes in helping to lighten their load in some way -- enabling them to continue in their work of reaching the unreached. We fulfill this purpose by building missionary homes and medical clinics; drilling water wells; erecting radio station towers; constructing bridges; building airstrips in remote jungle locations; shipping containers of supplies to missionaries around the world; providing equipment large and small; sending work teams to come alongside missionaries to help them accomplish their work. Our four main areas of focus are missionary services, work teams, equipment projects, and sending missionaries.
